Control panel lights for manual turnout switches

Mon, 2018-09-24 17:48 — uttrainman

Most of my turnouts operate with tortoise switch machines and point alignment is indicated with dual red/green Led's on the control panel. However, I have 3 turnouts manually operated with SPDT switches that I want to connect to the control panel to light the turnout indicator Led's. Is there a wiring schematic available that will show me the correct way to power the Led's with the SPDT switched?

Looking for Really old MRC decoder documentation

Sat, 2018-09-22 12:54 — peter-f

I thought I had a few of these  around... and I found them.  Might even be more curse than blessing!

OLD  (circa 1998)   MRC decoders - hard wired into MRC locos sold with DCC Systems as intro level locos.

The locos are FA-1s and the decoders are labelled (on the PC) TER 414W     All wires leave the board from one end and are soldered.

I am using the current version of JMRI and I can use most options but after using for three years I can not build trains.  I reset a train and click the build button and get the following JAVA error.

Sound files for Rapido SW1200RS

Wed, 2018-09-19 14:31 — VRS-Eric

Has anyone run two SW1200RS Locos together, one with the factory-installed Rapido sound file and the other with a "stock" ESU file?  Do they "notch up" in sync?  Do they work well together, assuming you change the various CVs in the ESU file like Matt Herman has posted elsewhere?

This is my inglenook before it was scenicked.

It was relegated to display purposes about two years ago,

but now I want to set it up to be wired for DCC. It has a Peco Code 83 Left Hand Turnout insulfrog and a Peco Code 83 Right Hand Turnout electrofrog.

Hardware and wiring Diagram DCC

 Hey guys just got a quick question. I run DC on my layout now but I would also like to run DCC. Can I do this? If so what kind of equipment will I need and how do I wire it into my DC layout?
